Del Toro brought my inner 14 yr old child back to life.

Rating: 10/10 (21 October 2014)

For 40 years I had dreamed of seeing a classic anime sci-fi narrative brought to life on the big screen. This larger than life story with larger than life characters has been the most enjoyable thing to come from cinema in years.
Japanese anime gave us some tremendous stories during the seventies and the eighties but technology could never bring any single one of them or any thing like them to a real life action movie. Pacific Rim is a fitting and perfect tribute to every one of those wonderful creations of the past.
It's been a long time since I went back six times to watch the same movie. 10/10
